I tend to forget how remarkable it can be for tourists, how we Amsterdammers do most of our traveling through the city by bicycle. Just the other day, I talked about this with a friend who lives in Texas. There, even if you wanted to, its just something you dont do. Not just because of the large distances, but also because of crime. Huh, I have to say Im a happy cycling Amsterdammer, even more now.

Although I dont even need to get onto my bike when I have to get groceries. Just around the corner there are many shops with lovely stuff. Like this pomegranate. Makes my mouth water just thinking of it.

Me drawing someone elses face than my own for a change

Last weekend, I attended a life portrait drawing session. It was so much fun, and the model was a super nice lady, dressed in bright pink. It was a 4 hour session, and before I went there, I was thinking I could never fill 4 full hours, but they flew by and I ended up making 3 drawings during this exercise. It was great to have someone patiently modelling, a wonderful change for once, as Im often using my own face for portraits.



These portraits were all done using basic techniques with graphite pencils, like the blending technique and the rendering technique, and you might be amazed how easy they are if you tried them.
